For regular occasions like doctor's visits and such she uses paratransit which is public transportation for the disabled. : But there are some occasions when I have to drive her to places. Begrudgingly I have driven her. The part that I'm upset about is when she invites other people to go along with her meaning now that besides having to take her (and pick her up) I have to do the same for the people that she invites. The last time the place that she had to go was so far out that I had to stay for the whole event (because I had never been there before and I was afraid I would get lost in having to pick her up). : The thing that bothers me so is that she invites people and doesn't even ask me if I mind - which I do. She says she feels she can invite anyone she wants - which is true - IF SHE WAS DOING THE DRIVING! : I welcome all of your opinions on this matter.... Your URL was edited as off-subject material.
